Bryant fish Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 5am on the water parsley bay brooklyn headed to pittwater thinking catch a few squid and some flatties for dinner. water was dirty so probably why no squid for me I've beendoing well on them lately but not today ok wife wants flathead as I've struggled lately and ended up buying some a few weeks ago. Drifting pittwater caught a 85cm old girl very wide across the head solid fish well I let her go and caught nothing but stingrays and shovel nose sharks after that. .pittwater has them in plagues lately it's all I'm catching .back to ramp and the clowns are there with ski boats jetskis and all there crap ,dancing on the pontoon even 1 goose has a chair on the ramp to sit and watch as they unload all there stuff on the bloody ramp 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yowie Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Good sized flattie. The murky water usually stirs up the undesirable critters. Seems like it has done the same on top of the water. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XD351 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I was there about 5.15 so probably just missed you ! Yep I could feel the general IQ drop when the JetSki nobs turned up at the ramp . Glad I stuck with the general area around patonga and flint and steel ! There are heaps of banjos and shovels out there along with Small Mulloway .

noelm Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Shovelnose are good eating, Banjos not real good though, so if they were Shovels, then you missed out on a decent feed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
